The Seattle Jaycees will have a vendor booth at the Annual Fire Festival in Pioneer Square on July 11th & 12th from noon - 8pm and we need your help to promote our Police, Firefighter and EMT Appreciation Event.
There will be plenty of opportunity for you to participate in the festivities which will include...
Firefighter Combat Challenge: The Toughest 2 Minutes in Sports
Firefighters from across the Pacific Northwest and British Columbia show off their skills and compete for personal glory in what is called "the toughest 2 minutes in sports." Competitors must climb a 5-story tower, hoist, chop, drag hoses and rescue a life-sized, 175 lb. "victim" as they race against themselves, their opponent and the clock. Visit the Fire Fighter combat challenge website for more information or to register for the challenge.
Kids Challenge
Children of all ages can safely experience the thrills and excitement of the big challenge on our inflatable ground-level kids' course.
Five Alarm Chili Cook-Off
For the first time, the Fire Festival will feature a chili cook-off, with prizes awarded in categories like green chili, red chili, vegetarian, and many more! Both amateurs and professionals are encouraged to enter. A select panel of judges will award the winners and the public will select an "eater's choice" winner!
Mascot Challenge
Mascots from your favorite professional and college teams face off on the Kids' Challenge course.
Music and Entertainment
Enjoy contemporary & turn-of-the-century musical performances on the main stage in Occidental Park.
